Tesla Model Y: Replacing Wiper Blades

For optimum performance, replace the wiper blades at least once a year. Replacement blades must meet the following criteria:

  • The blade on the driver's side must be 26 inches (650 mm) long and 21 inches (530 mm) long for the blade on the passenger's side.
  • Ensure the connector on the replacement blade is the same as the original blade. Different connectors may prevent the replacement blade from connecting to the wiper arm on the vehicle.

You can purchase replacement wiper blades on http://www.tesla.com.

NOTE: Only install replacement blades that are identical to the original blades. Using inappropriate blades can damage the wiper system and windshield.

To replace the wiper blades:

1. Shift into Park and turn off the wipers.

2. Touch Controls > Service > Wiper Service Mode > ON to move the wipers to the service position.

3. Lift the wiper arm a short distance away from the windshield, just far enough to access the wiper blade.

CAUTION: Wiper blades do not lock into a lifted position. Do not lift a wiper arm beyond its intended position.

4. Place a towel between the wiper arm and windshield to avoid scratching or cracking the windshield.

5. Hold the wiper arm and press the locking tab while sliding the blade down the arm.
